The half blade did made it easier and less challenging with the alignment of the blade...I'll have to try using a 'snapped in half' blade...A great shave.

I'd read favourable experiences of the travel pet feeder bowls repurposed as shaving bowls, and I was delivered two the other day with one intended for my nephew. In the 4-5 years of wet shaving, I'd never used a shaving bowl to build a lather so today was my first occasion to build a lather in a bowl. The nubs seem to catch the cream and contribute well to making a lather very quickly, even with the worst brush I own! Ah, the VigShaving boar, a truly terrible shedding brush.
It was only a quick shave to tidy up my cheekbones and below the jaw, I'm getting sick of having a beard and I think I may part with it soon.
Have a good weekend chaps.

Used it a couple of times this week - produces great lather effortlessly
Thanks for your honest views...The Katana is aggressive /assertive no doubt, but like any razor if treated with respect & the slightest of touch it'll reward you with a good shave.I read a review of the Yaqi Katana which suggested it was a little more aggressive with a snapped DE blade than a shavette blade.
I also gave into the temptation of this razor and placed an order for one, I'm generally not a fan of aggressive razors but the positive reviews of the razor head were too much to avoid.
Hope you enjoy using yours Barry.
The brass General head and Bravo handle look really good togetherThis shave was themed 'Somewhere over the rainbow'

I ain't going to go on too much today as rushed about here at work. All I will say is 'Fucking brilliant' and smelling very rosy
Be well one and all of you wonderful people and have a lovely weekend.
And do have some Japanese girls to sing you out
Thanks for the reply Brian, good to hear it works well.
Do you have a link for it? There was another one on ATG which looks the part but on the larger side of things.
